But it did work for our stomach problem-haver! e: The real life hack is to never get headaches or other random aches that necessitate the use of ibuprofen because goddamn that's one effective cure and goddamn does it ever make your GI tract hate you over time even if you try to be sparing with it.

My diet entirely consists of Morningstar Farms Chik Patties and Mountain Dew and for the first time in my life I'm not crippled by stomach pain

Meanwhile if my diet was nothing but veggie burgers and mountain dew I'd have hella stomach pain. Too much citrus.

An old poor person trick was to get ketchup packets and those mini half and half tubs and make cream of tomato soup. Kinda.

When we were roommates, a good friend of mine made pasta with elbow noodles and ketchup. It was not desperation or resourcefulness, nor was he drunk at 2 AM. Ketchup was what he understood to be pasta sauce. I resisted the urge toward murder-suicide and instead taught him how to cook.

My first roommate literally did not know how to boil water. I knew him for years and his mom did a lot of cooking, he just never absorbed any skills.

Oh I can top that. During college I’d regularly make “soup burritos” that would be my sole substance for multiple days at a time. You’d make a big batch of rice in a rice cooker and when it finished you’d dump a can of soup or two in there and stir it up to be a mostly solid mass of whatever you added flavored rice. Toss that into some large tortillas and boom, a “meal”. Clam chowder was a personal favorite. It’s a wonder the sodium and carbs didn’t kill me.

Once I read an account from someone who'd just put on a pot of potatoes to boil, and he knew he'd be doing the cooking in that household when his new roommate peered into the densely layered pot and asked with concern "but how big are they going to get after cooking".

On the other hand the first time I cooked chickpeas I thought they'd get softer but stay roughly the same size, like lentils and beans. I ate a lot of chickpeas that week.

My mother in law did all the cooking when my wife and her siblings were younger, however there is a large gap between her and her siblings so she would hang around the kitchen and took in a lot. Her siblings all have “teenager level understanding” of food and this eat out a lot or have very basic meals. Mostly French fries.

I'm really glad my mother got me involved with the cooking from a very young age and had me actually cooking dinner by the time I was 10. I'm still not a great cook, but it was enough to make me 90th percentile among people I personally know. One of my friends was visiting and attempted to help out with food prep by cutting a potato while they were holding it in their hand instead of setting it down on the cutting board. Fingat, etc.

Cutting up potatoes while you're holding them* is perfectly normal and how millions and millions of people have done it for Of course you have to know what the gently caress you're doing. e: You peel it in your hand, you should be able to cut it up in your hand. It's the same CYERAMIC NOIVE, unless it isn't. (Nowadays it mostly isn't because a peeling knife is just better for peeling in every way.) *) ONE AT A TIME

That's how I cut most vegetables for salads. Never cut myself doing that. I only cut myself when lining baking sheets with foil or doing the washing-up, somehow. And yes, my grandma taught me that, lol.

Elysiume posted:Any time I see a time estimate on a recipe I double it or add an hour, whichever is less. I’ve never even come close to a recipe’s estimate. This one was pretty accurate except for two things that are technically true as stated but are hidden time additions. 1) This recipe calls for "cooked brats". Well I'm not gonna buy precooked brats, so unless this is a leftovers user there's time there. 2) Chicken stock. Sure, you can use premade, but if your a soup making aficionado you're gonna make your own.

I ate a lot of pasta in college more because I was lazy than anything else. Once I had my own kitchen, I bugged relatives for recipes and asked for cookbooks for Christmas and started cooking like a normal person pretty quickly. Or at least what I thought was normal? Maybe I'm also in the 90th percentile and never knew it....

Visiting with surviving elderly family members and asking them to show their old recipe cards and hearing them reminisce about things is one of the greatest things assuming those people aren't shitheads for other reasons.
